At Town we have a regular rythm of winning something every 19 years, since Sir Alf's might triumph in 1962.
We won the Football league Championship on 28th April 1962
19 years 22 days later on 22nd May 1981 we won the UEFA Cup
19 years 7 days later on 29th May 2000 we won promotion back to the premier league
The two Pauls broke that model by getting us relegated 19 years later, strictly speaking I suppose it was a little under 19 years since we went down with a whimper very early,
Also in the season that we won the football league, Liverpool got promoted from the second tier
Finally, here's a date for your diary, on 2nd June 2021 the same amount of time will have passed since our last game in the Premier League as there was between winning the Football League and the UEFA Cup. |  |

Besides ruining peoples weekend, what else are you up to?! | |

Let's hope it's a promotion based trophy and not the tin pot trophy |  |

I am somewhat lethargic this morning having drunk more than is usual for me last night and also having tried some of my daughter's odd, and frankly revolting, alcholic drinks. Tequila Rosé and some passion fruit horror for example. It may account for the somewhat melancholic tone of my OP.
How are the seven seas treating you today? | |

By this logic are you not ignoring us winning the FA Cup and getting promoted twice? |  | | |

No, not at all, they are just extra-rhythmic events. I do wonder what thing of magnitude will happen to us in 2038, and I hope to be around to witness it. | |

Surely all promotions are equal?
Can't see us getting promotion to the prem in the next 19 years, but we should get out of league 1. 'Should'! |  |
